Wikipedia:Correspondence off-wiki
Correspondence and communications between or among editors or third parties, such as e-mails, instant messages, or chats in Internet Relay Chat channels, should not be considered confidential when it relates to the project. Participants in such correspondence should not expect it to remain private beyond what is protected by the Wikimedia privacy policy. In particular, IRC and email exchanges that relate to actions carried out on Wikipedia (e.g., blocks, bans, co-ordinated editing) may be revealed by any recipient at any time without reprisal, with the following exclusions.
This is a failed proposal. Consensus for its implementation was not established within a reasonable period of time. If you want to revive discussion, please use the talk page or initiate a thread at the village pump. |
This page in a nutshell: With the exception of information covered in the Wikimedia privacy policy, do not consider Wikipedia-related correspondence to be confidential. |
